24、pen in surprise, Mum took off her hat and coat and gave them to me to hold. She walked quietly to the small room by the lift(電梯) and took out a wet mop(拖把).

30、mals have little connection with animals of a different kind, unless they hunt them for food. sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership(伙伴關(guān)系)which does good to both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a r

31、ide, but because they find easy food in the parasites (寄生蟲(chóng))on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove(消除) the cause of discomfort(不安). So although they can manage without each other, they do better together. Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops unt

32、il the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals(珊瑚)of the sea.

A. 4675027 B. 7143177 C. 5012372 D. 7144850DThe idea of fighting a noise by making more noise sounds strange , but thats exactly what motor(汽車(chē)) engineers are doing in Germany and some other countries.Car

44、makers research and development laboratories have already proved that mixing in more noise with the help of loudspeakers can reduce the unwanted noise. Physicists have known about the technique(技術(shù)) for a long time. Sound is made up of pressure waves in the air. If two sound waves of the same frequen

45、cy(頻率)mix so that the highest point of one wave happens at the same time with the lowest point of the other wave, the result is no sound. Therefore, by producing a perfect copy of the noise and delaying it by half a wave cycle(周期), we can kill the unwanted noise. Using this technique many carmakers

46、are racing to develop noise-killing systems both inside and outside the cars.Another good thing about the use of noise-killing systems is that it saves(減少) the need for a silencer, which not only reduces the weight of a car, but also makes the motor burn less oil and work better.Some engineers belie

47、ve that the noise-killing system will be used in most cars in 1996. But the carmakers havent decided if they will put it into production because it would add several hundred dollars to the cost of their cars.70.Which of the following gives a general idea of how the noise-killing system works?A.By pr

48、oducing pressure waves going in the opposite direction.B.By mixing high frequency sound waves with low frequency sound waves.C.By making copies of the unwanted sound waves and letting them out a little later.D.By mixing new sound waves with the noise and sending them out together.71.Besides its main

49、 function(功能)the noise-killing system can .A.make a car lighter B.make a car quieterC.reduce the cost of a silencer D.improve the performance of a silencer72.The noise-killing system is not yet popular mainly because .A.it increases the cost of car production B.carmakers are not sure if it is necess

50、aryC.it is still being tried out D.people still have their doubtsEHave you ever been in a meeting while someone was making a speech and realized suddenly that your mind was a million miles away?You probably felt sorry and made up your mind to pay attention and never have daydreaming again. Most of u

51、s, from earliest school days, have been told that daydreaming is a waste of time. On the contrary(相反), says L. Giambra, an expert in psychology(心理學(xué)), daydreaming is quite necessary. Without it, the mind couldnt get done all the thinking it has to do during a normal day. You cant possibly do all your

52、 thinking with a conscious(有意識(shí)的)mind. Instead, your unconscious mind is working out problems all the time. Daydreaming then may be one way that the unconscious and conscious states(狀態(tài)) of mind have silent dialogues. Early experts in psychology paid no attention to the imporance of daydreams or even

53、considered them harmful. At one time daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses. They did not have a better understanding of daydreams until the late 1980s. Eric Klinger, a professor of psychology, is the writer of the book Daydreaming. Klinger says, We know now that daydreaming

54、is one of the main ways that we organize our lives, learn from our experiences, and plan for our futures.Day dreams really are a window on the things we fear and the things we long for in life. Daydreams are usually very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand. Its easier to gain a deep understanding of your life by paying close attention to your daydreams than by trying to examine your sleep dreams carefully. Daydreams help you recognize the difficu
